Just when you thought things had settled down, TMZ.com is reporting that former UFC light heavyweight champ Quinton “Rampage” Jackson has been picked up by police. Again. It’s just getting ridiculous now:

Sources say last night an Irvine police car was waved down by people near the place Rampage was staying who said he was acting weird. This, of course, following the insane chase the day before in which the UFC fighter hit several cars in his monster truck and was arrested at gunpoint.

We’re told Irvine cops saw Rampage, deemed him a danger to himself and others, and took him to a hospital for observation.

Cops won’t officially confirm if it’s a psychiatric hold.

This is getting weird. Dana White told radio host Steve Cofield that he was in Southern California dealing with the situation, but apparently even he was unable to keep Rampage under wraps. He did make this cryptic statement about the situation though:

“I’m actually here right now, I’m in Southern California. I’ve been dealing with this all day yesterday, I haven’t really gotten to the bottom of this yet. I don’t know what I’m going to do about it yet. Last night when he got out, Rampage is very religious…yeah I’m dealing with it.”

What? What does that even mean? How does the above sentence even work, structurally speaking? Has the whole world gone mad?

Apparently, the answer is yes. You can now become the proud owner of a piece of Rampage’s shredded tire:

My co-workers and I were driving back from lunch Tuesday, and almost got hit by this big a** truck being chased. His front tire landed in front of our car as pulled over to let the cops do there thing.

If your out of town, you will need to pay for shipping costs.

Please, Potato Nation. I’m begging you. Pool your meager resources and buy this piece of MMA history. Think of it as an investment. Think of it as the dumbest investment known to man. Then buy it anyway and send us the photos. We’ll make you a star!

I Think The First Sign Of Him Being Fucked In The Head Was That He Started Hanging Around With That Little c*nt Wilmer VelderamaWhateverTheFuckHisNameIs prick from that 70's show.
Im Glad Forest Smacked This Dudes Head In.

His nickname is Rampage. I remember hearing somewhere that it was given to him as a kid because of the temper tantrems he threw. Could he be Bi-polar? I think so.

Well..- July 17, 2008 at 2:26 am

Dana is obviously lickin those chocolate ballz

I'm surprised that you stupid and incompetent, oil-importing Americans were able to catch him.

Obama for President!!!

I think Forest had something to do with it. Probably slipped him a drug or something.

Is it just me or do black guys tend to run from Cops on some ghetto instinct?

To bad for Rampage - you big dumbass! I can say that safely when I'm on the internet.

I kinda think he's on antidepressants. It makes sense after he mentioned how he was depressed for a week after the fight. They will turn you into a different person and make you do things you normally wouldn't.

The whole contradiction of Religion. Most of you swear up and down that there is a God and he is controlling everything around us. But any of us do something wrong its all on you and GOD gets taken out of the equation. Rampage is suffering from a lack reality. If you find solace in knowing there is a god and it makes you a better person, good. If you run around talking about how the angels are coming back from planet Nibiru in the year 2012 to take our gold and burn the infidels who never beleived in them. Well........

vidasixy- July 16, 2008 at 6:18 pm

way to kick a man when he's down guys i'm sure his 4 kids and the people who he terrorized will find it fucking hilarious
whatever you thought of the man bottom line is no-one wins not the sport or the fans who've lost one of the most exciting fighters of recent years
reding this shit tho makes me think he's in a better place in a secure mental unit than in the fight game

Rampage needs help- July 16, 2008 at 6:11 pm

This is not a case of someone who is wacked out on acid. This looks like a classic case of a person with severe bi-polar disorder who has quit taking his medications. Only Rampage and those close to him know for sure, but the fact that he was sober when the cops arrested him the other day after the chase as well as the crazy, erratic behavior - it looks like a textbook incident.

“I have seen people act and do some wierd shit when on E - acid - shrooms or even PCP. ”

EVEN PCP? When did PCP become so pedestrian that it gets an “even” in front of it.

-I’ve seen some people do some crazy shit on heroin, crack, EVEN meth (if you can believe it!)-”
---------------------------------------------

I was thinking the same thing... as for heroin, about the craziest people will do on that is puke and poop on themself I think...

Christ, so he made a few mistakes. He commited some crimes.

I've been arrested for worse.

He's lucky he didn't get treated like a "King".

Myles Kilometers- July 16, 2008 at 4:33 pm

Dana White will probably kick him out of the UFC and tell him to call him when he can get his life straightened out...so he'll probably fight sometime in August.

I told you so- July 16, 2008 at 4:21 pm

Well just when Rampage started to win people over and look at him like a respectable member of society he shows his true colors. I have always thought he was a gheto pos but I even started to warm up to him....well what a shame to have so much talent and then do this. well my prayers are going out to him, and maybe he can act right and try to salvage his career at this point. what a shame

TAZE HIM! ANYBODY THAT BIG & SCARY LOOKING ,MUMBLING ABOUT JESUS &
THE BIBLE ,HES OBVIOSULY HAS CRACKED UNDER THE PRESSURE OF LOSING TO
SOMEONE WHO LOOKS LIKE RON HOWARD (THE EARLY YEARS) MAYBE WITH THERAPY & THE PROPER COUNSELING HE CAN BE STRAIGHTENED OUT & TAZED AGAIN

mayhem420- July 16, 2008 at 4:10 pm

I dont like to think this way but from everything I have read on this it really sounds like a drug thing. I hope its not cause I like Rampage and hate to see this type of stuff.
Maybe he took some bad E or what have you.... I have seen people act and do some wierd shit when on E - acid - shrooms or even PCP. If you do it for to long a period of time it can really mess with your head.

Wanderlei and his godamn thai clinch are finally catching up with poor Rampage
